PearsalI

Luther S. Pearsall, of Coe township,
last year chairman of the board of super
visors and now railway builder and con-
tractor, was in the city yesterday. When
Pearsall took his three meals day in this
county, he kept track of things pretty
well, but when be got out west be be-
came muddled politically. although the
ARGUS reached him regularly each week.
He is strong republican and was SO con-
hdent that the parson would get thar
that he bet hat with Supervisor Hol-
lister, of Port Byron, and lost. II Pear
sail had remained in the county until the
political pot began to boil last fall. it is
very likely that Sheriff Silvis would have
had to defeat him instead of the parson.
As it was Pearsall saved himself drub-
bling, but lost a hat.

SOCIALIST DEBATES.

Some of the Denver Socialists Ii. e been in the habit of attending the mees ings of the prohibtioniots, and have in- sisted on asking questions of the minis ters who sometimes attend, The latter gentlemen have found difficulty in fram. ing answers which were considered log. ical and therefore object to the presence of the Socialists. A Unitarian church member said to one of the ministers re- gently that, "lf we as church people and prohihitionists cannot meet successfully and answer satisfactorily the queries of the Socialists we had better shut up shop.'

 Lamp Inspector Upson complains of the theft of street signs from the lamps. The authorities seem to be SO well satis- fled that they were stolen by respect able thieves that they do not attempt a search of the Yale College dormitores and students boarding houses.
 The Morning Nems says the new party, meaning the adherents of II. George, is pledged not to "oiliciate" with the local Labor Party. 1t seems that some one IS afraid that the Labor Party will grow too strong for the comfort of ofiicehoId CTS and politicians. However, this will not materially affect the Labor Party il the more intelligent workmen are true to the principles of Labor.
 It is said that the organization known as the Land and Labor Club has adopted rule which prohibits membership n any other political party. No notice oI such acton was sent to members we art told. Members of the Labor Party il this city will hardly be able to reconcile this action with the presence of known members of the club in question at Labor Party meetings, They should either sever their connection with the club ol with the Labor Party as mere matter of common honesty.

 Their sacred, solemn trust. Yes patriot fathers, here we VOW By all our honored dead, We will not be unfaithful now To you, who fought and bled For freedoms sake.

JUSTICE. NOT MERCY.

Brave Men Choose Death Rather Than
 Capitalist Mercy.
 Four of the condemned men of Chica- go have written letters to the Governor of Illinois saying that theJ only want him to examine the true records of the trial and if in his opinion they are inno- cent to declare them so. But they do not want any mercy from him. They are willing to die rather. They will probably die, but they may rest assured that their death will not end the matter for their murderers.

REAPING AS THEY slowed.

The decision of the Supreme Court
of Illinois, sentencing the bomb
throwing Anarchists to be hanged
on the 18th of November, is right
eous verdict. 1t will teach the fends
who come to this country bent on
mischief, murder and arson. that the
laws OF this country cannot be violat-
ed with impunity, 1t will teach
these jabbering dynamite foreigners
that the United States is a Republic
that will put to death those who by
act would uproot our civil institu-
tons and incite riots of death and
destruction. This is country OF
civil liberty as well as a civil tongue,
and that man has no right to place
among us whose speech is incendiary
and whose acts and teachings tend
to murder and theft and arson. lie
alone is guaranteed the right of citi-
zenship who respects and uLholds
law, who works for living and
conducts himself peacoably and
friendly towards all men. Dyna-
miters, bomb throwers and outlaws
must expect to be dealt with harshly
if they persist in their diabolical
acts. Whatsoever they SOW, they
will reap. II they SOW dragons
teeth, they must expect harvest Of
blood and death. ii they SOW the
peaceful fruits of industry and right
eousness, they will reap protection
of life, liberty and property. This il

Now, Sam, wasn't it whisky that
carried you within half a mile of
hell, and not the Democratic par
ty! and if you had stuck to whisky
wouldn't it carried you the "half
mile" and landed you square into old
Satan's furnace? If it was whisky
that demoralized and corrupted you
so badly, why attribute it to the
Democratic party? The Democratic
party has never required OF any man
as right to membership within its
ranks that he should become drunk
ard, liar, a thief or ballot box
cheat. 1t you did all you say you
did, then you did it at the bidding Of
drunken sots and working poll
ticians, and not at the command of
the Democratic party, for ''as a man
thinketh in his heart, so is he" Ac-
cording to your own bill of indict-
ment, drawn by yourself against
yourself as a Democratic politician,
you was one of the best subjects for
the penitentiary Of any man we have
heard of, and it is a good thing
that Sam Jones and the grace of God
got hold of you, for according to your
statement, you was a disgrace to
the Democratic party the way you
was acting, and now since you have
been converted we hope you will
make better Christian than you did

ever Democrat, it wasn't to hurt,

PLAGIARISM.

The charge that DIR. Hawthorne
plagiarized his Augusta speech, or in
tended to do so, is refuted by it's
publication, wherein at the very out
set he emphatically stated that he
was largely indebted TOR the facts he
was going to use to distinguished
and conservative thinker" Because
he didn't give DR.. Strongs name. as
the author, is no more grounds
for charging plagiarism than it would
be for the Augusta Chronicle or
News to say that they are in
debted to IAN exchange for articles
they have copied or may copy with
out giving the name in italics of the
paper in which the article originally
appeared. Public speeches often
contain compilation OF facts aud sta
tistics without the tedious mention
ing of the source from which they
we're derived. But in DR.. Haw-
thorne's case he read his speech to
several gentlemen before delivering
it, and told them where he obtained
his facts from Dir. Strong's book,
Our Country -, and recommended Il
purchase of the book. He was euuallv
as frank with his Augusta audience
in telling them of his Indebtedness
TO this conservative thinker and
the quotation marks used in the
manuscript were indubitable evil
dence that he had no wish to mas
querade in borrowed literary plum
age. The only tault chargeable to
DR.. Hawthorne is, that he allowed
his tongue and temper to run away
with his sober judgement and cool
reason, when he resented the charge
that sought to place him in false
light before the public.

CATCHING AT STRAMS.

The Republican party has ceased
to be a party organization of princi-
pies, but on the contrary appeals for
votes on the reputation of some name
that filled the popular heart in days
gone by, which now some son bears /;
as for instance look at the recent Re
publican nomination in New York,
where Fred Grant, son of the dead
President of that name, was nomina-
ted Secretary of State, with view
to rouse enthusiasm for the name
and catch votes. The Republicans
also are strongly urging Bob Lin
coin, son of President Abe Lincoln,
as candidate tor President. These
two young men have no conspicuous
qualifications for the positions named,
but the Republican party is in the
mire and wants to be helped out.
